The Difference Between Flame Cutting, Plasma Cutting and Waterjet Cutting
When you need metal cut-to-size, there are a variety of cutting processes to choose from.
What Is Normalizing?
It is important that the material used for any project possesses the correct mechanical properties for the specific application.
What is Tempering?
Tempering is a heat treatment process that alters the mechanical properties (typically ductility and hardness) and relieves internal stresses of a steel.
What Is Annealing?
While the chemical composition of a metal determines much of the mechanical properties, many metals can have their mechanical properties altered through heat treatment.
What Is Galvanneal?
Sacrificial coatings are an excellent way to protect an underlying base material from the effects of corrosion.
How To Cut Metal
While metal is generally hard and tough, it is still able to be cut by several different processes.
Welding Galvanized Steel
Welding galvanized steel has gotten a bad reputation over the years (rightfully so) as the fumes produced during welding can be incredibly dangerous to the welder’s health.
